Fun fact: If you add up the first 17 prime numbers, they total 440 — which also happens to be the number of albums, EPs, singles, box sets, compilations, anthologies, retrospectives, soundtracks, cassettes and vinyl reissues coming out next week. What does one have to do with the other? Nothing. But hey, I have to put something in this space. Anyway, get yourself primed for these releases:
